The oenological tradition in Alicante dates back to the 6th century BC. The Enrique Mendoza winery has continued this almost sacred practice, harnessing the peculiarities of the climate of l’Alfàs del Pi, which feeds its vineyards with sea breezes, soft light, and calcareous soil. If you’re interested in oenotourism, during your visit you can learn about all stages of the process, from field treatment, bottling, and conservation in the underground cellar, to the final tasting.
📍The winery is located in one of the healthiest areas in the world according to the WHO.
🍷Tastings are conducted directly from the barrel and paired with Barranco Tagarina extra virgin olive oil.
🗓The earliest documents of its estate, “El Chaconero,” date back to the 16th century
